Bash 2.01 bug in coolview

In the version of bash.exe that is distributed with coolview
I have experienced the following problem:
$ ls -l | cat
$
No output when using pipes! In this example, the size of the
directory makes a difference. For small directories, it works
correctly. Make it a little larger and the output gets truncated.
Bigger still, and no output will be shown.
I get better results if I do
$ set +o monitor
but this has no effect if put in .bashrc
I also get proper results by adding parenthesis:
$ (ls -l | cat)
I have none of these problems with the bash that ships with b18.
Perhaps there is some other setting for bash I can put
in .bashrc to fix this problem?
